Wilson's Creek Battlefield.

First off, I fell in love with the fences.

This to me is true beauty. I love old things.

The kids had fun looking at the old canons. It was really cold out and very wet.


Lovely old red barn in the distance.


This was one of the farm houses that the soldiers used as a hospital.

We thought the confederate flag was pretty cool. Again, back to my love to all things old. Yes, that does include my husband.

We were all extremely shocked to see how heavy the weapons were. We had the kids imagine having to carry the guns and ammo through the woods to fight.

Don't let the dinosaurs get us.


My Diva's Olivia and Ella.


The turtles at the Nature Center.


Blake with the "Blakes" sign. How fun it that?

Watch out Anna!

Can you tell how unhappy our little boy was?

There was a lady there letting the kids pet a snake. Olivia was so in love with it she was all but hugging it. I was waiting out in the hallway while my BRAVE, STRONG, and FIERCE husband Troy took the picture.


Today we went to the New Mexico Museum of Natural History. It was a fun experience because Autumn and Blake had never seen any dinosaur bones. Before the museum we went to the Rio Grande Nature Center to see the turtles. Blake is crazy for turtles. Then for lunch we ate at Blakes. Needless to say it was a hit with Blake. Soren is still sick so he didn't have a lot of fun and I felt bad for the little guy. He was happy to get back home.
